About Me:

Hey! I live in London with my partner, and work in the travel industry.  Have a real passion for travel, and have been lucky to see some amazing places. I love getting under the skin of a destination,​ visit off the beaten track destinations​ and really experience the culture. But I'm just as happy sitting with a coffee watching the world go by and putting the world to rights! Next trips for me are Freiburg and Marrakech :)

Looking for long-lasting​ friendships from NZ, just returned from a month out there, going back very soon, and would love to stay in touch with anyone in my 'second home'!

I'm down to earth, love the outdoors, wear my heart on my sleeve, have a fab (if slightly warped) sense of humour, am eclectic, independent,​ shy, introverted,​ and a bit of a dreamer...

So after all that, if you're not comatose, it'd be fab to hear from you!

Oh and please check out my photos, cheers :)

Requests:

It'd be great to hear from anyone from NZ...choice!​

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

As well as travel, I love music, literature, photography,​ hiking, the outdoors, philosophy, psychology, world cultures, pubs, cafes, art, theatre, languages,  etc etc..the usual stuff.

Favorite Music:

Any singer-songw​riter stuff...

Sarah McLachlan, Joni Mitchell, Anika Moa, Crowded House, Finn Brothers, Bic Runga, David Gray, KT Tunstall, Angelique Kidjo, Youssou N'Dour, Sheryl Crow, Jewel, Alanis Morissette, Bjork, Duffy, Paula Cole, Indigo Girls, Tori Amos, Matchbox Twenty, Vertical Horizon, Train
...etc etc...you get the picture...

Favorite Movies:

Lost in Translation,​ Once Were Warriors, Amelie, Little Miss Sunshine, Fried Green Tomatoes, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Monty Python's Life of Brian, Moulin Rouge, Chronicles of Narnia, Erin Brockovich, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Fahrenheit 9/11....

Favorite TV Shows:

Don't watch much tv to be honest...but​ I do love Absolutely Fabulous,  Flight of the Conchords, Will and Grace, Fawlty Towers...any​ comedies really.

Favorite Books:

Any travel writing, Margaret Atwood, Khaled Hosseini, Jostein Gaarder, Bryce Courtenay, Anne Tyler, Michael Palin, any travel guidebooks also...

Favorite Quotes:

" Where no-one intrudes, many can live in harmony"​ - Chief Dan George.

" I don't pretend to know what you want...but I offer love" - Distant Sun, Crowded House. How beautiful is that?

" You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on " - Dean Martin.

" You're about as useful as a one-legged man in an arse-kicking​ contest " - Blackadder.

" To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world " - Freya Stark.

" Tourists don't know where they've been. Travellers don't know where they're going " - Paul Theroux.

Hullo there!
Back home after all ... 've been quite busy working so didn't really go online. As you told me, London's suburbs going down the drain fast. Anyway, I spent a good time there and had the pleasure to be a "discov​er painting"​  guide to a friend who'd never been to London.
Also discovered the science museum myself. So great!
How're you doing these days?

Yeah, Lene. Isn't she the cutest thing ever ;) My favourite song has been 'You Weren't There', for a long time already. 'Lost in Translation'​ is my favourite movie too, on top of the pile compared to other good ones. I saw it some years ago already and I don't dare to watch again (though I would love to), because I'm afraid it would lose the magic and the feeling it left me with after the first time of watching.

I watched your photos. *Amazing.* I was stunned. Somehow I even feel a better person now. So thank you for that -)

I'd like to visit wet and rainy London. If it's as rainy as rumours say, I think I would even like to live in there. -)

Nice weekend to you too,

Gerith
